1886–87 FA Cup

The Football Association rejected entries from the following clubs for being received too late:^[1]

• Aston Shakespeare
• Bury
• Eckington Works
• Hurst
• Lancing Old Boys
• Romford
• Sheffield Wednesday
• Stafford Rangers
• Stafford Road
• Walsall Swifts
• Wellington Town

One consequence of this was that a number of Sheffield Wednesday players registered to play with Lockwood Brothers instead,^[2] resulting in the works side's best FA Cup run.

[*] The Cannon side (from Tottenham) had entered the competition without being registered with the Football Association, so was ineligible to play^[3]

[**] Newton Heath turned up for the match with several ineligible players, and so scratched before the game; the sides played a friendly, which ended 2-2.^[4]

[***] Due to a number of their first-team being ineligible to play, Everton scratched to Rangers and played a friendly match instead, with Rangers winning 1-0^[5]
